I have a Linksys LNE100TX PCI network card that I have been using with Linux distros for a while without any problems. But somewhere around the time I upgraded to SuSE 9.2 Pro, something went wrong. Now GAIM disconnects every few minutes and just streaming audio from a networked computer results with intermittent breaks in the audio. This is the output of ifconfig:

As you can see, eth0 RX has 2569 errors and TX has 4 errors. Can anyone help get rid of these errors?

Thanks.

It sounds like a driver problem, not with configuration.

What driver module does your system use for the eth0 device? I'm not too familiar with SUSE, but I believe /etc/modules.conf should have a line that says something like "alias eth0 [module]". If that module isn't "tulip", then it's using the wrong module.

You can probably change that easily enough. Look on your machine for a file called "tulip.o". It's usually in /lib/modules/[kernel_version]/kernel/drivers/net/tulip. If you find that file, then you can change /etc/modules.conf to be "alias eth0 tulip"
